im sorry to burst your bubble but if you find a used part in the junk yard other than black or white, chances are it wont match 100% anyways, if you really dont care about a perfect match, perfect, but if your picky, like ram2500power said a bodyshop will blend your cab also so it will match. haha i own a bodyshop

Well I have been told (by a body shop haha) that if you find a color that is a close to possible it is easier for them to paint and they probably wont have to primer it reducing the cost. My bed is ery rusty so having it repainted is no longer an option. same goes for the other body parts.

I just went though finding a good, rust-free 8 foot bed via my local craigslist. It's much harder to find a good, used rust-free body part than it is to worry about paint color, especially something as large as a truck bed. My rust-free used bed is a burgundy color. My truck is green. I plan to take the rust-free bed up to the paint shop and have it painted green, then remove the old bed from my truck and take the truck to the same body shop to have them re-paint the truck green, since the roof, hood and fenders are badly faded, along with some missing paint.
